BENGALURU, India, June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Infosys (NSE: INFY) (BSE: INFY) (NYSE: INFY), a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, today announced that it has been ranked, for the third consecutive year, among the 100 most valuable brands in the world, according to Kantar, the leading marketing data and analytics business, in its annual BrandZ Most Valuable Global Brands report released today. Infosys is ranked as #74 most valuable brand in the world and ranked as #20 most valuable global B2B technology brand.

“Even through a tough year of disruption and volatility globally, we stayed focused on delivering on our brand promise and let our purpose point the way for Infosys. Through the uncertainties, our clients trusted us to help them navigate their next with cutting edge digital-first, cloud-first, and AI-first approach. We remained committed to amplifying human potential and creating the next opportunity for all – people, businesses, and communities,” said Sumit Virmani, EVP and Global Chief Marketing Officer, Infosys. “It’s very heartening to be recognized for our endeavors and to be counted among the world’s most valuable brands,” he added.

This Kantar BrandZ recognition is a strong validation of the client trust that Infosys has earned, and the relevance of its capabilities – especially in domains like enterprise AI where emerging technologies like generative AI and foundational technologies like cloud continue to evolve by the day. The astute investments that brand Infosys has made in nurturing sub brands, like Infosys Topaz for generative AI-powered solutions and Infosys Cobalt for enterprise cloud, is paying rich dividends. In fact, earlier this year, Infosys was ranked a top-3 IT services brand globally, by Brand Finance, for the third year in a row.

Martin Guerrieria, Head of Kantar BrandZ, said, “Kantar BrandZ data shows that Infosys is among the top 6% of the most trusted brands in both India and the US. In both markets, Infosys is becoming more relevant to its customers by cementing its positioning as a trusted partner. BrandZ’s 2024 Most Valuable Global Brands report reveals that strong brands continue to thrive despite global economic uncertainty. Crucially, investment in effective marketing helps to improve customer predisposition and drive brand value growth, contributing significant dollar value to sustain business success.”

Infosys’ brand ambassadors – tennis icons Rafael Nadal and Iga Świątek have served to deepen the brand’s relevance as digital transformation partner to the world, through the highly visible ‘Champions Evolve’ campaign. The icons help credibly reinforce the strong track record Infosys has in digitally reimagining tennis, through the many brand partnerships it has forged within the ecosystem of the sport including the ATP, Roland Garros, the Australian Open, and International Tennis Hall of Fame. Outside of tennis, Infosys’ brand thrust is strengthening through its strategic collaborations with the Madison Square Garden, including key MSG properties New York Knicks, New York Rangers and the Madison Square Garden Arena, as well as Formula E, Dow Jones, The Economist, Financial Times and Handelsblatt Media Group.

This has been another year, for Infosys, of living its purpose, and playing an active role in making the world we work and live in more sustainable, inclusive, and equitably prosperous. For example, Infosys, in preparation for an AI-first future, has reached 11.75 million people through its digital skilling initiative. This includes learning opportunities created by Springboard – the company’s flagship reskilling program, with free digital content served globally. Infosys continues to be carbon neutral for the fifth year now. During the year, Infosys was also recognized in the top 100 of TIME Magazine’s list of World’s Best Companies of 2023.

HONG KONG, Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On 9 January, Neusoft Education (09616.HK) announced that the Company’s English name will change from “Neusoft Education Technology Co. Limited” to “Neutech Group Limited”. The name change will take effect on the same day.

According to the announcement, the Company’s renaming to “Neutech Group Limited” better reflects its strategic transformation and upgrade, and more accurately demonstrates its five-in-one industry layout of “education-healthcare-wellness and mind tour”. This will establish a new corporate brand image and highlight the Company’s comprehensive strength in technological innovation and integrated development. Starting with the name change, the Company will focus on education and adapt to the aging economy, promoting the parallel development of academic education, continuing education, senior education, and resource output. This will create a business model of “education-assisted healthcare, education-assisted wellness, medical-care conversion, medical-education assistance, care-supported medicine, and care-education assistance”. Driven by technology and platform research and development, the company will achieve integrated development of education, medicine, care, health, and tourism, as well as efficient use of human, financial, and material resources. This will build a harmonious and inclusive “education + technology + medical care + health + tourism” prosperous ecosystem. It is expected to further enhance the Company’s brand reputation and industry influence, and support its sustainable development.

Neutech Group, as a pioneer in the “education-healthcare-wellness and mind tour” ecosystem in China, successfully listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 29 September 2020, becoming the “first stock of IT higher education” (stock code: 9616.HK). With the broad market opportunities brought by the aging population and the positive support of policies for the development of the elderly care industry, the Company leverages its innovative research and development capabilities in “education + technology + medical care” to build a new ecosystem of integrated development of ” education-healthcare-wellness and mind tour”.

In the education technology business sector, the Company will retain the main body of ” Neusoft Education Group” and continue to operate academic education, continuing education, and resource output businesses. Based on IT innovation education, the Company will further develop the “digital media” and “medical care” fields, build an integrated ecosystem of “education-healthcare-wellness”, and consolidate the core competitiveness of education technology in the future. The Company will also establish a characteristic product and service system based on the 4S model, providing first-class platforms, resources, models, and management services to governments, universities, hospitals, and health care institutions, continuously empowering partners’ reform and development.

In the elderly education and elderly care technology business sector, following the concept of “Elderly care starts with prevention, education drives elderly care, and technology empowers elderly care”, the Company has deeply developed elderly education through Neuedu Phoenix Academy and created a unique “LIFECARES” model of integrated elderly education with “leisure, care, medical services, education, and integration”. Using top-notch medical and care services and platform services to empower the elderly to live a happy life, the Company is building a dream university for active seniors. In addition, the Company will strengthen the training of elderly care service personnel by creating a one-stop industry chain of “university training + training + intern + human resource services”. On the other hand, the Company will build a medical and care technology operation service model, create an elderly care solution industrial ecosystem through the output of overall smart elderly care solutions and elderly care technology products and services, and achieve mutually beneficial cooperation with ecological partners.

In the medical and health care service sector, the Company integrates customer management service systems to provide intelligent medical and elderly care information solutions, and create a “medical care and elderly care” integrated development system with treatment-based medical institutions, rehabilitation-based nursing institutions, and care-based elderly care institutions. Its subsidiaries, Ruikang Cardiovascular Hospital, Dalian Ruikang Zhuomei Stomatology Hospital Co., Ltd., and Wecare Family Nursing Home, have been put into operation.

In the wellness tourism sector, targeting energetic seniors, the Company integrates tourism, education, and elderly care into one, with a focus on “leisure learning, slow travel, and peaceful living”. Through the concept of “study-travel-care”, seniors can experience a variety of dimensions of “learning-travel-care” in their travel and learning process, creating a comprehensive elderly education model that provides opportunities for art experiences, promotes physical and mental relaxation, enhances cultural literacy, and expands social interaction.

In addition, the Company expands its industrial management and service sector, with the vision of building a better life and using technology to empower intelligent logistics. It explores diverse, characteristic, and value-added service models to meet the diverse needs of internal and external customers, continuously expanding its brand reputation and social influence.

With its keen market insight and deep accumulation of industry and education resources, Neutech Group Limited actively embraces the development of the silver-haired economy, timely enters new tracks, and improves its position in the industrial ecosystem. Now, the Group’s new layout of “education-healthcare-wellness and mind tour ” has been formed, which not only helps to create a new growth curve but also continuously expands new development margins, moving towards becoming a leader in the development of the “education-healthcare-wellness and mind tour” ecosystem.
